**Vancouver Faces Reality of "The Big One" with New Findings** Recent research has revealed a sobering truth for Vancouver: the city is more vulnerable to the devastating effects of a megathrust earthquake than previously thought. Known as the "Big One," this cataclysmic event is not a matter of if but when it will strike. The Cascadia subduction zone, a massive fault line stretching from Northern California to Vancouver Island, poses a significant threat to the city. Historical records indicate that a similar earthquake in 1700 sent a powerful tsunami that wiped out an entire village in Pachena Bay. Only those who escaped to higher ground survived. A recent study by the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) has found that buildings across the Metro Vancouver region are more susceptible to damage than initially believed. The GSC's findings contradict previous assumptions that buildings built to modern seismic codes would be adequately protected. The Vancouver Island M7.3 earthquake of 1946 serves as a stark reminder of the potential devastation caused by crustal earthquakes in the region. Residents of Vancouver and surrounding areas are being urged to prepare for the inevitable "Big One." Annual events like ShakeOut aim to raise awareness and provide guidance on emergency preparedness. While the exact timing of the earthquake remains unknown, scientists stress the importance of being ready for its impact. By taking steps to secure their homes, establish evacuation plans, and stockpile essential supplies, Vancouverites can increase their chances of surviving this catastrophic event.
